Absolutely right Greg.
I wanted to add a section on to my driveway but found out the color pattern of the existing pavers had been discontinued.
My hardscape contractor showed me the alternatives and didn't feel any of them came close enough. I told him "Hey, sometimes you gotta wear a polka-dot shirt with striped pants".
It ended up working out fine and no complaints from HOA.
Different wood tones work out fine when part of the structure, it's the rugs, furniture and artwork that pull the room together.
